twice upon a time

arvo pärt sai 11. septembril 70. olen olnud kaks korda tema muusika sünnile väga lähedal kahel sündmusel, mis mull olid väga tähtsad: kord niguliste kirikus 1999 ja siis londonis aastal 2000. esimene kord nigulistes oli nagu unenägu. oli suur suvi ja ma istusin terve nädala kirikus, vaadates, kuidas tehakse imet. väljas tormas mööda maailm, aga kirikus oli tühjus ja samal ajal täiuslik väike kõiksus, milles polnud puudu millestki. kohtasin seal aarnot ja heidit, kahte tõesti lahedat inimest. ei tea, kas elu on nende vastu viimasel ajal olnud hea?
(arvo pärt turned 70 on september 11. i have been very close to the birth of his music on two concerts that really meant the world for me: once in the niguliste church in 1999 and another time in london in 2000.
the first time in niguliste was like a dream. it was high summer and i sat in the church for a whole week, watching how a miracle was being made. outside was the world rushing by and in the church there was emptiness and at the same time there was this perfect small world that did not lack of anything. i met aarno and heidi there, two really wonderful people. i wonder how life has been for them lately?)
